#622 Evaluation of Mucin and Neuroendocrine Expression in Diffuse Gastric Cancer with Signet Ring Cell Morphology

Introduction: A proportion of diffuse gastric carcinoma, according to the Lauren classification system, has signet ring cell morphology. Signet ring cells are characterized by a peripherally placed nucleus and a central amorphous substance, which is reported to be mucin based on Periodic Acid Schiff positivity (PAS). PAS is not a specific staining method for mucin. Neuroendocrine expression has previously been reported in tumor cells in diffuse type gastric cancer.

#406 YF476, a Gastrin Receptor Antagonist, Causes Regression of Tumors and Normalizes Serum Chromogranin A in Patients with Type 1 Gastric Carcinoids

Introduction: Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) results in achlorhydria, hypergastrinemia and, in some patients, gastric carcinoids (type 1 GCs). Type 1 GCs may become malignant and metastasize. Current treatments of type 1 GCs, such as polypectomy, somatostatin analogues and antrectomy, have their disadvantages. YF476 – a potent, selective, orally active and well-tolerated gastrin receptor antagonist in pre-clinical studies – prevented, as well as reduced, the number and size of gastric carcinoids and carcinomas in rodent models.
